Melissa Davis-Crump was a student looking to pursue her passion…photography. She had been attending Angelo State University and wanted to startup her own photography company to turn her passion into a full-time job.

After considering her options, Melissa decided to seek out the help of the Angelo State University - Small Business Development Center and Advisor Pedro Ramirez. The client was guided though the process of starting her business and received details pertaining to obtaining an assumed name, sales tax permit and marketing advice.

“Pedro and the SBDC have helped me start my business and helped me expand into a successful one,” stated Melissa. “I never would have been able to do it by myself. Photography is my passion.”

The project resulted in the creation of two new jobs, but more importantly the creation of a new successful business. Today, Melissa is so busy that she is looking to expand and she’s enjoying every minute of it.
